Summary: Very good, religion minimized though
Comment: This fun little book is a great starting point for making a family history that can be passed on to future generations. The book works by giving the family historian a series of questions that he or she can answer, thus making the basis for the history. Topics covered include such things as family and ancestry, careers, politics, and much more.
I really liked this book; it took me in directions that I never would have thought possible. Overall, though, I would only recommend this book as a starting point. For some reason, religion is covered with only a few questions in this book; while for some families it is much more important that such coverage would show.
That said, though, I do think that this is a very good book. If you want to tailor make a history of your own, then it is a good starting point. But, if you want to record a history merely by answering their questions, then this book will work very well for that, too. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Not bad, but very Amero-centric
Comment: My husband and I bought this for his mother, who is English and lives in England. The book is a great place for us to start chronicaling our family history, but many of the questions are extremely Amero-centric. Just a warning if your parents/grandparents were not born and raised in the USA.

Summary: A Gift For Generations To Come
Comment: Recently, I began sorting through my family's miscellaneous family history files in an effort to organize and update the information. It was with this goal in mind that I purchased this book.
Instead of getting something that would help me unify my information, I found that this book encourages the individuality of the people you are trying to "document" for generations to come. Filled with more thought-provoking questions than you will ever find people to answer them, this book is a comprehensive and categorical compilation of just about every question you could ever think to ask *ANYone*. It's questions are appropriate for any age level, whether you are asking your grandparents or your grand-daughter. I found this book to be a wonderful conversation-starter and I learned far more than just "facts and dates" about my ancestors from the older members of the family.
Whether you are a seasoned geneologist or just looking for a starting point, this book is the next step of your journey through time. Generations to come will thank you!
